“You could rock these!”
I…don’t know how I feel about this.
Ok.
I know I live in a strange, secluded liberal bubble where Animal Collective is famous and everyone has heard of Foucault and being queer is about as normal as wearing socks, but really? I’ve never met anyone, conservative or otherwise, who doesn’t think that this dude is a giant douche:

Never forget that the guy who is already associated with “the frothy mixture of...

And I’m basically just shitting my pants over how fucking awesome that dude was. Like it’s still a major life goal of mine to go to Prague for ‘The Slav Epic’ alone.
You know I'm actually in a good mood right now
But goddamn ‘Pictures of You’ with a chaser of ‘Re: Stacks’ made me forget what the very concept of happiness was for fifteen minutes.

Party aftermath
I didn’t really realize this until I was swapping stories with my roommates this morning, but based on circumstantial evidence from last night my drunk male friends said FAR more ridiculous things than my drunk female friends (who more or less screamed out a lot of variations of “WHY AREN’T YOU DANCING?!”).

Somehow I just found myself on a wedding blog.
And what is the artist’s excuse for anything? Reference. Of course.
Anyway, wedding blogs and the weddings they cover are 99.9% insufferable (how I wish “rainbow bohemian DIY wedding” wasn’t real but it is, documented via Instagram and everything), but I will report that there is at least one couple who got married in fucking Iceland in front of a bunch of glaciers.
